hello. i’m abbie.
there’s a lot of things i define myself by:
i’m the oldest sister to ten wonderful people.
i’ve been a photographer ever since i could get my hands on a camera,
and a writer ever since i learned to print.
i’m a doula, a lover of babies, mamas, families- with a desire to support them through loss and mental health especially.
fresh air makes me feel whole.
i am healing, recovering, and growing.
according to tests, i am an INFJ, a highly sensitive person, and my love languages are words of affirmation and quality time.
flowers make my body sneeze but make my heart feel light and happy.
my new “normal” is days filled with chronic pain.
i’m passionate about safety, equality, love, and acceptance for every human.
i love sunshine and rain, equally.
i want to photograph you and your story- because i value you, and because the way we as humans connect is through stories. through love and rawness and vulnerability.
i want to photograph you and the ones you love- because it is ever so beautiful how your light and love for eachother pours through the seams of your hearts and skin.
i want to photograph you and the ones you birth and adopt- because how powerful and mighty you are, welcoming new lives to the earth, bringing them forth with your body, heart, words.
i want to photograph you in your seasons of life- new covenants, new heartaches, new songs, old love, old dreams.
i want to photograph the earth, in all its magnificent glory and tiny wonders.
i want to photograph the ones i love, the memories i don’t want to forget, through the seasons and valleys i walk through.
i want to write for you, for the broken ones, for the waiting ones, for the moments of joy and fulfillment and for the moments of weeping and emptiness.
i want to write for me, to empty my heart and mind of the thoughts and words that swirl there, to express my passions and fears.
so here i am. i’m afraid of vulnerability and of missing the stories and of not ever fully connecting and seeing the bigger and smaller pictures. i can only offer my hands, my heart, my soul, my words, and my camera.
